hi there,

i'm building a small class library which will be used from classic asp
(com interop), asp.net and for testing purposes from my console test
application. the class library requires an app.config which i have
created. a couple of settings are added to it.

now my problem: in my console test application i've added a reference
to the class library. everything works fine except that the class
library doesn't read the configuration settings as i would expect. the
values read using the ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MySetting"]
method always return null strings. i've been working with app.config
files before and it always worked fine.

i guess this might have to do with the hierarchy of configuration
settings. i guess, if i would add the configuration file to the console
app instead of adding it to the class library, everything would work
fine. but this is not what i need. i need the configuration to be
attached to the class library. does this have anything to do with
installing the class library in the gac? do i need to do that? and if
so, how do i do that?

thanks for reading thus far. i hope i explained the problem properly.
my english is not the best. any help is greatly appreciated.
